Salt and Light - Episode 54: Circumcision, Candlemas, et al

With an all-too ironic opening to the show, Chuck and Annie give you some updates on our friend "Bob" being persecuted for his Catholic faith in his country, Chuck's on-the-mend black eye delt by an accidental 4-year old knee to the face, and then dive DEEP into this week's topic!

After the holiday hangover and into the doldrums of winter, it's all too easy to forget that there is much more to celebrate and "ponder in our hearts." This past Saturday (40 days after Christmas) the Church celebrated Candlemas, during which we recall the Presentation of Jesus in the temple and Blessed Mother Mary's purification. In our modern age, this story can seem in many ways unrelatable, and after spouting off the "who, what, where, and when," we simply move on. However, this story is rich in meaning. Join us for this exegesis!
